Ortovox Pro Light Shovel

Ortovox Pro Light Shovel

Extremely lightweight, compact and functional, the Ortovox Pro Light Shovel is the perfect companion for all ski tourers who want a lightweight and robust shovel as well as placing a high demand on their equipment. 

Ortovox has used innovative materials with modern production processes and carefully have considered adding notches to the shovel blade to create a lightweight avalanche shovel, weighing only 440 g this is one of the lightest shovels on the market. 

For the shaft of the shovel, Ortovox has used a high quality 7075 T6 aluminium that is both very light and extremely strong.  Thanks to the telescopic, rapid-closure shaft, this lightweight avalanche shovel can be quickly adjusted.

The blade is made of 6061 T6 aluminium.

The practical switchover function makes it easy to switch from left handed to right handed.

Step grooves to stop your foot slipping when digging. A sharp, sturdy cutting edge guarantees optimum performance. High sidewalls and a pronounced centre ridge on the blade provide the necessary rigidity.

Thanks to notches in the material, the Pro Light is not only lighter but also suitable for building a rescue sledge or for use as a snow anchor.

Compatible with the Pro Alu III shaft and fits in all Ortovox backpacks.

The pro light is the perfect companion for those who like to travel lightly on ski tours because with less weight on your back you can use all of your energy for great adventures in the snow.
